Hao Ren woke up, and as promised to Han Lingshi, he cooked her a portion of food, and then he left the room to go to the class. As he was walking, he held his phone to check the latest news in the nation. Sure enough, his plan has reaped him a great reward. The Ion family was raided by the income tax officers, and the company was also seized, none of the people were allowed to leave home. The commissioner had directly put them all under house arrest. The share price was falling and many people were coming up claiming to be a victim of Ion family's actions. Hao Ren appeared at the class gate, and looking inside he found that the students were all whispering and wondering about the issue of the Ion family, after all, they had all been connected with each other one way or the other so it was sure that they would know. Hao Ren made waves as he came in but he did not care. He took his seat and placed the two tiffin on the desk. Han Lingshi did not say much, and let the tiffin rest on the table. It was when the door of the class was pushed open and Xia Yulei came inside did Han Lingshi used the chance as an opportunity and stowed the tiffin in her bag. Hao Ren stood up to greet the teacher with a faint smile on his face. He did not expect that Han Lingshi would be so wary of the other students, but it was nice. After a few minutes, the class began and Xia Yulei asked, "The founder's day is around the corner, who wants to sign up for a performance?" Hao Ren surprised because he did not expect that the students would be given the responsibility to perform. He felt a hot gaze on his face from his left, and at the same time the system said, *Ding: Host, your wife is looking forward to a performance from you. Take the stage and be a star.* Hao Ren sighed and raised his hand as he asked, "Miss, do we get any credits for the performance?" Xia Yulei was surprised but then she nodded and said, "Yes, you get ten credits, but know that only one act is allowed from each class, the rest of you can participate as volunteers in servicing and attending guests, you will get two credits each." Many people raised their hands, there was no shortage of people with music skills in the rich and the affluent. Music was one of the vanity skills that they all learned. Xia Yulei said, "After lunch, I want you all in the music room, we will see who comes out at the top to represent the class." The classes continued as per usual, and then came recess, someone sighed and said, "I wonder how Dwight is holding up in all this chaos. My uncle told me that dad would be most likely arrested and Ion group would need to pay for the damages." He took a deep breath and his fingers began to dance. From the moment the first note rang out, every one could not help but sit up a bit straighter. Ye Yue opened her eyes wide for a moment before she blinked and the scenery changed. Hao Ren had yet to finish the intro, and he was already reeling in the people. He appeared as a man dressed in a dashing black tuxedo with his indifferent gaze locked on the void as he played the piano. As he kept playing, more and more people appeared to be kneeling beside him. They all had an expression of fear etched on their faces. Hao Ren appeared as if he was an untouchable entity in the world. To other's he was someone who could not be touched. Han Lingshi on the other hand saw a young man who claimed the stool and was playing the music dressed in a black suit but he was bathed in moonlight. The song continued, Hao Ren transitioned to the second movement of the sonata, and Ye Yue held the armrest of the chair tightly, the shock on her face was completely visible. She could see the men begging the young man as he sneered. The playfulness in his eyes that ignited upon watching the agony was so pure and undiluted that it made them people feel goosebumps. The second part was not so big, but then came the third movement where the tempo and the notes picked up pace. The people saw a young man who was mercilessly dealing with his enemies and leaving them in the dust as he walked ahead. While the world around him came to crash, he met a girl, who changed him and he began to dance with her in his arms, however, just because he was soft to her did not mean that he was soft to the world also. He spared none who stepped over their bounds, and manifested the devil himself in the process. The girl became the only one who accepted him the way he was. The music came to an end, and many people sat in the auditorium with a stunned expression on their face, while some people were broken in cold sweat. Suddenly, a soft clap echoed in the auditorium, and everyone found that it was Han Lingshi, who had clapped, they all came back to really and Ye Yue stood up before she clapped and cheered, "Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!" As she said this, her eyes were brimming with tears. Shocking the rest of the teachers, and Ye Yue said, "This was the best interpretation of this song that I have ever heard in my life. Student Hao Ren, thank you." Hao Ren stood up and bowed to her with a smile and then he bowed two times more before walking off the stage. Ye Yue turned around and said, "You all perhaps did not realize how strong this performance was and that is why you did not clap, but I am sure you will all agree if I just directly make Hao Ren the music act of the night. Does anyone have any objections?" The people shook their heads and the trials came to an end. They did not know that Hao Ren was really the devil, who just nipped one of their classmates last night. *Ding: Task successful, now, the reward is...*
